On: UK court allows ANN patent saying computer program...

> It is not implementing code given to it by a human. The structure, in terms of the emulation of uneducated nodes and layers, may well be the result of programming, but that is just the equivalent of the hardware ANN. The actual operation of those nodes and layers inter se is not given to those elements by a human. It is created by the ANN itself.

So therefore the inventor is a computer? I thought that was settled already.

I know computer authorship was settled in the US, but was this also settled in the UK?

Even if it hasn't been, "I didn't invent this" seems like an utterly asinine basis for an argument for patentability.
